The Delicate Lady Coroner

Chapter 26: An inch of gold 26

Zheng Yunni's sorrowful expression stagnated, "Master Hou...what are you talking about?"

Everyone looked at the Huo Wei Tower, all in surprise. Zheng Yunni cried so miserably, and kept begging him to save his mother. How did he see that she had left the lady in the fire?

The eldest lady is her biological mother.

Zheng Wenan was right beside Zheng Yunni, frowning upon hearing the words: "What does Hou Ye mean?"

Huo Weilou looked at Zheng Yunni coldly, then glanced at the back of Zheng Yunni's hand. Zheng Yunni begged Huo Weilou, one hand was pulling his robe, and it was the back of this hand. There are piercing scars, swelling and bleeding, but no scabs, anyone can tell that they were injured a moment ago.

Zheng Yunni followed Huo Weilou's gaze and looked at her hand. Her complexion suddenly changed, and she immediately retracted her hand. She continued to cry: "This scar was scratched by a bamboo stick when Shi Cai ran out. The courtier did not know. What is the meaning of Lord Hou, I only ask Lord Hou to save his mother..."

Huo Weilou stood up without turning his head back: "Bo Ruoyou, come on."

Bo Ruoyou stood not far behind Huo Wei Tower, and immediately walked up after hearing the words. Huo Wei Tower stared at Zheng Yunni from a condescending position, "stretch out your hand."

Zheng Yunni’s crying pear blossoms were raining, but Huo Weilou seemed to have never seen it before. His voice was cold and tough. Zheng Yunni sobbed twice, after all, he stretched out his hand tremblingly.

Bo Ruoyou checked Zheng Yunni's hand with the light of the fire, and soon said solemnly: "The hand of the eldest lady was scratched by someone. Blood was seen on the back of the hand with three scars, and the other scar fell on the palm of her palm, only red and swollen. The eldest lady was injured on her right hand, and the person who hurt her should use a grasping posture, and use her left hand. Because of the weak little finger, she never left a scar on the back of her hand."

Bo Ruoyou's voice was clear and without hesitation, and his words were more detailed, and he used his left hand to gesture on the back of Zheng Yunni's hand. For a while, everyone could even imagine how the two of them pulled at that time.

Zheng Yunni sobbed and immediately said: "The courtier remembered it wrong. This scar was left by her mother. Her mother was going to run into the forest to chase the fire. When the courtier pulled her out, her mother scratched the courtier's hand. ..."

Bo Ruoyou gazed, "The eldest lady is lying again. If you pull the eldest lady, it is the eldest lady holding the lady’s hand. The scars should be left on the back of the lady’s hand, and the lady’s nails will be stained Madam's blood."

Only by being caught, but struggling to break free, will there be scars on the back of his hand. Such a situation often happens from time to time. When Bo Ruoyou said this, everyone came back to his senses. Zheng Wenan couldn't help saying: "Yun Ni, What happened?"

Zheng Yunni stopped her hand at the corner of her eye, wiping tears, and was seen through one after another. She was not in a hurry. Seeing Zheng Wen'an asked, she looked at Zheng Wen'an sadly, "Okay... since I was seen, then I too I don’t have to hide it anymore. I want to ask my uncle who was the murderer and why my mother didn’t feel scared when she saw her. On the contrary, she treated her as an old friend. Chasing the murderer, she couldn't even care about the fire around her. Not only did she follow the murderer, she even dragged me. I... If I don't break free, I will be burned to death..."

Zheng Yunni cried, "I didn't intend to leave my mother, but she didn't leave. If I stay here, will I be burned alive? Wushu, who is the murderer? Is there anything between mother and the murderer? Shameful relationship?"

Zheng Yunni still changed her mouth, but her question, Zheng Wenan didn't know how to answer for a while. He raised his eyes and looked at Huo Wei Tower, his voice was difficult, "Hoye, Yun Ni doesn't know what happened back then..."

As soon as Zheng Yunni heard this, his tearful eyes became more startled, "Fifth Uncle, what happened back then? I know that situation is wrong, and then I want to conceal one, two, fifth uncle, don't you know... , I’m the only one who doesn’t know?

Zheng Wen'an dared not look at Zheng Yunni's questioning eyes for a while, so he could only sigh and lower his eyes.

When Zheng Yunni was crying, Bo Ruoyou was not only looking at her hand, but also carefully looking at her elsewhere. She wore a bright red dress today. At the moment, the skirt is full of mud, and her own sideburns are scattered and thin. If You look deeper and deeper, the fire in the forest spreads all the way to the east, and those who have lived in the dark for years, will they use arson methods to harm people?

Huo Weilou ignored Zheng Yunni's question, he only looked at Zheng Yunni, "You said there is tung oil sprinkled in the forest?"

Zheng Yunni nodded, "Yes, the courtier smelled something wrong, but it's too late to wait for the reaction..."

If there is tung oil, it is reasonable to have such a fire.

Huo Weilou asked Zheng Wen'an: "Where is tung oil stored in the mansion?"

Zheng Wenan was stunned, "In the treasury to the southeast..."

Zheng Yunni immediately said: "Ding...it must be the murderer who stole the key to the treasury again. She can steal the mandala. What is it to steal the tung oil now?"

It is true that the murderer would use the mandala as a drug again and again, and she came and went without a trace in the mansion, and then sneaked into the mansion to steal the tung oil. It was not unbelievable. However, Huo Weilou stared, "You said the lady was chasing the murderer Go, where did the murderer escape?"

Zheng Yunni pointed to the east, "Go over there—"

At this moment, the west wind is blowing, and the fire is blazing all the way. Since the murderer has set fire, but has not judged the wind, he has gone to a more dangerous place? Huo Weilou frowned slightly as he was about to speak, but Bo Ruoyou stood up and said, "Master Hou, please take a step to speak."

Huo Weilou's eyebrows raised slightly, and then turned and walked aside, Bo Ruoyou followed him, standing beside Huoweilou and speaking in a low voice.

In the distance, everyone only saw what Bo Ruoyou had been talking about. Huo Weilou listened intently, but did not answer. He only occasionally nodded in response. Soon, Huo Weilou turned around and called a few embroidered clothes ambassadors in front of him. He ordered a few words, and a few people immediately went southeast, but the remaining one turned and left.

After this person left, Bo Ruoyou was still whispering to Huo Weilou, but the wind was whistling, the fire was fierce, and they were far away. No one knew what they were talking about. After waiting for a long time, the embroidered dressmaker came back and was around. Followed by a bad office.

Huo Weilou frowned and asked the yacha two words, only to see the yacha's respectful nod reply, Huo Weilou nodded after hearing it, and this made the yacha leave.

Huo Weilou said something to Bo Ruoyou again, and Bo Ruoyou shook his head.

Huo Weilou seemed to sigh, and then he walked over with Bo Ruoyou, and when he was in front of everyone, he said: "Since the tung oil is used for the ignition, the murderer must have stolen the tung oil from the mansion house. Benhou has sent someone to the mansion. Search the library to see if clues can be found."

As he said, Huo Weilou raised his eyes and looked at the fire scene, "The immediate task is to save people first."

The fire was getting bigger and bigger, and the two embroidered clothes that just entered the fire scene made his figure neat, but they did not come out at this moment. Huo Weilou frowned, and the others held their hearts high, for fear that the two embroidered clothes ambassadors would also be ruined. in.

Zheng Yunni's tears were not dry, and she still had a look of grief. While looking at the fire scene, she looked at Bo Ruoyou and Huo Wei Tower subconsciously, as if trying to figure out what the two had just said. After returning to the crowd, Huo Wei Lou's expression was calm, but his thin eyes were somewhat contemplative, as if he was doubting something.

Suddenly, Huo Weilou looked at her.

Zheng Yunni's pupils trembled, but he pretended to be calm and before looking away, Huo Weilou asked, "Is the right person to see the murderer clearly?"

Zheng Yunni immediately said, "Naturally see, she is thin and short, wearing grandmother's robe, she looks very gloomy and terrible, and when she sees the courtiers and mothers, she laughed and said that she had waited for us for a long time. Then I lit a fire..."

Zheng Yunni's detailed description sounds easy to believe, and Huo Weilou asked again: "Where did you go this afternoon? The murderer is waiting for you after setting up the game, maybe she has already followed you at that time."

Zheng Yunni said calmly: "The courtier went to the Buddhist hall in the afternoon."

For a while, the eyes of several people around Zheng Yunni fell on Zheng Yunni. Zheng Yunni said: "After my grandmother died, the Buddhist hall was closed. But then my second uncle and third uncle were murdered. I was very scared. I wanted to go to the Buddha yesterday. I prayed, but I didn’t dare to walk around. By this afternoon, I went to the Buddhist hall to recite a volume."

The Buddhist hall is quiet. After the official search, no one has been to the Buddhist hall for many days. This means that although no one can testify to Zheng Yunni, no one can say that she is lying.

But Huo Weilou frowned slightly when he heard this, and seemed to find some doubts, "You said that the murderer saw you and said a word, she said it neatly? What kind of voice did she say?"

Zheng Yunni said with lingering fear: "She said it viciously, in one go, the voice...the voice is the voice of a woman..."

"Apart from this sentence, nothing else?"

Zheng Yunni nodded, "She seems to have a deep hatred for us, as if to wait for this moment, I don't know who she is, but it seems that she is not very old..."

Huo Weilou asked again: "Does she have scars on her face?"

After all, Zheng Yunni was the first to have a face-to-face with the murderer so close, and escaped from her men. Zheng Yunni nodded and looked even more terrified, "There are...some...that face is terrifying, just ...It looks like a fool's face, and it makes you feel like a cruel person when you look at it."

The conclusion of this statement almost confirmed Bo Ruoyou's earlier inference that there were two idiots in the mansion.

However, Huo Wei said, "You are lying again."

Zheng Yunni was taken aback, and the other people's expressions changed slightly. Huo Wei said, "It's too much to say and it's wrong, but you figured out how to answer, so it's not flustered, but Benhou has seen countless repeat offenders, and one person is telling the truth. , I'm still telling lies, Ben Hou is clear at a glance. From the moment you got out of the fire, you were in a state of ambivalence. If it is true that your mother took the initiative to chase the murderer, you may not go into the details and ask Ben Hou to save someone. Yes, but you always emphasized that she was kept to save you."

"At the moment of life and death, you have just escaped from birth, and you want to save your mother, but you have thought of many reasons here to prevaricate us. The only explanation is that you are lying. You have many reasons to find, but you used this excuse. , I just want to show that your mother and daughter are deeply affectionate, you are ashamed and condemned, and you are eager to save your mother."

Huo Weilou looked at Zheng Yunni, with a sharp eyebrow, and his heart and soul, "It appears to be eager to save his mother, but also crying miserably, to win sympathy, so that people can regard you as the victim, believe in your words, and thus do not doubt you. "

The teardrops in the corners of Zheng Yunni's eyes were still not dry, and when he heard this, tears fell again, "Master Hou...Is the Lord Hou suspecting that the courtier is not successful? Does he suspect that the courtier is really running for his life alone, leaving his mother in the sea of ​​fire? "

Zheng Yunni's look of innocence, coupled with a pair of teary eyes, is really unimaginable that she is acting.

Huo Weilou narrowed his eyes, "It's not just where you lied, but your first lie was seen through, and you quickly found the second one. You also said that the murderer said something to you viciously, but Shicai Benhou asked the ambassador who had just met the murderer, and the ambassador said that when he ran into the murderer tonight, the murderer suffered from aphasia and stuttering, and it was impossible to finish a sentence completely."

Huo Weilou looked at Zheng Yunni coldly, "Since she can't speak the whole thing, how can you hear the words in one go? The only possibility is that you are lying, and you deliberately described the murderer as a vicious look for revenge. It also coincides with the speculation of the murderer in everyone's hearts. For a while, no one questioned you, but your fault lies in it. You have never heard a murderer speak."

Zheng Yunni was stunned. She looked at the Huo Wei Tower a few feet away, and she forgot to cry for a while. Behind her was a blazing fire, but she couldn't feel the burning. The world suddenly fell silent, she seemed Standing in the ice cave of Lajiu Hantian, "I...I heard it wrong...I was terrified at the time. I only saw her fierce face and didn't hear it too clearly. Yes, Lord Hou didn't say it. Wrong, she did speak intermittently, but her expression was extremely grim."

Zheng Yunni looked sad, and even at this time, he still insisted that he had just heard it wrong.

He Cheng and others trusted Huo Weilou, and naturally understood that his doubts were more convincing. However, Zheng Wenan and Zheng Wenrong looked at Huo Weilou, then Zheng Yunni, and suddenly they didn’t know who to believe.

At this time, Zheng Yunni cried again, "Master Hou said that I lied, but why should I lie? That's good, why should I come here? I escaped from the fire, I almost killed my life..."

Huo Weilou stared at him, "Because you originally set this fire."

"It was not the murderer who led you, but you, who led the murderer."

Zheng Yunni's hand on her cheek stiffened, and her expression was slightly stagnant, but she smiled sadly, "What is Hou Ye talking about? The murderer is so vicious, I can't avoid it, how can I lead her over?"

Huo Weilou glanced at Bo Ruoyou, and Bo Ruoyou stepped forward and said, "Because you don't want her to fall into the hands of Master Hou, Master Hou dug a well in the afternoon. You know that Master Hou has made a major discovery, and the murderer may not be able to hide, so you I would rather kill the murderer yourself than fall into the hands of Lord Hou."

Facing Bo Ruoyou, Zheng Yunni's eyes immediately took on a stern look, "What are you talking about? I am Miss Houfu, and that murderer is just a shameless sinner. Her guilt is heinous, how could I take such a big deal? Risk to harm her? You said I set off the fire. Where is the evidence?"

She asked this question in her chest, and at this moment, the embroidered clothes ambassadors who had just left came back together.

One of them held an object in his hand, walked to Huo Wei Building and whispered something, and then handed the object to Huo Wei Building. At that moment, everyone saw clearly that it was a white jade earring.

Huo Weilou looked at the palm earrings, then at Zheng Yunni, his brows clumped, "You said you went to the Buddhist hall in the afternoon, but how could your earrings appear in the Southwest Mansion?"

Zheng Yunni's complexion changed drastically. Her temples were scattered. At this moment, there were wisps of ink in her ears. Others could not see if the eardrops were still there, but she hurriedly touched her ears. With this touch, she realized that the eardrops on her left ear didn't know. When is it gone.

If she could still grit her teeth and deny it before, the eardrops at the moment are the iron proof that she has been to the treasury, and she cannot tolerate her denial.

"I...I..." Zheng Yunni's eyes were red, and he murmured, while turning her eyes in a panic, suddenly, she raised her head as if she went out: "Yes, that's right, I put the fire, but I don't I think you are not doing well. My third uncle has been dead for two days, but you still can’t hold the murderer. If you can’t hold it, I will personally avenge my grandmother and my second and third uncles. I know the murderer must be looking for The next goal, so I specially lured her, and then burned her to death. She killed my grandmother, my second uncle and my third uncle. What's wrong with me asking her to pay for it?"

Zheng Wenan and Zheng Wenrong were shocked when they heard it. They didn't expect Zheng Yunni to have such courage at a young age and dare to take the risk to find the murderer for revenge. Zheng Wenan also red eyes, "Yunni, why do you take such a risk... "

Hearing Zheng Yunni's awe-inspiring remarks, Huo Weilou frowned. He was only sure that Zheng Yunni was doing a show, and he was convinced that he was suspected of arson. Now she admitted that the fire was really hers, but he felt that It's strange.

How could Zheng Yunni's thoughts and tactics really take the risk in order to avenge his grandmothers and uncles.

At this moment, he heard Bo Ruoyou's voice.

"You want the murderer's life, not to avenge your grandmother and them."

Bo Ruoyou opened her mouth again. She looked at Zheng Yunni with deep eyes. There was a hint of sorrow and pity in her eyes. Zheng Yunni turned to look at Bo Ruoyou. She smiled coldly with tears on her face, "It's you again. …What else did you guess? You are just a small piece of work, and I have shown you all my injuries. What else do you have to say?"

Zheng Yunni was half crying and half laughing, his eyebrows were three-pointed crazy and three-pointed devilishly, "I'm not avenging my grandmother? What am I doing? She disturbed our Houfu chickens and dogs and killed three lives. Shouldn't she deserve to die?"

Zheng Wenan seemed to approve of this, and he sighed: "I knew this before, so I shouldn't have kept her."

The words were settled, and Zheng Yunni's expression was strangely stiff for a moment.

Bo Ruoyou looked at her, "Did you hear it? That's what they thought. If you didn't leave you behind, how would this happen today..."

Bo Ruoyou's words were dumbfounded, very calm and determined, everyone looked at Bo Ruoyou, but their eyes were shocked, as if she too was crazy.

Zheng Wenan opened his mouth, "I...I'm talking about that child..."

Zheng Yunni, with a sharp tongue, seemed to be petrified at the moment, her eyelids jumped fiercely, she didn't know what kind of expression to put on her face for a moment, and she could easily pull out a smile, but stiff and weird, more ugly than crying.

"You...what are you talking about..."

Bo Ruoyou looked at her with pity, "I didn't dare to be sure, but you are so desperate today, and the reasons and excuses you just made up just match up, and it finally made me want to understand."

The corner of Zheng Yunni's mouth twitched, as if he wanted to say something to stop Bo Ruoyou from speaking, but her strength seemed to be taken away, and she didn't know how to restore the situation, and Bo Ruoyou would not give her a chance to conceal her sophistry.

"You clearly don’t know the past, but when you made up your excuses, you said that the murderer said that to you, because you understand that the murderer’s hatred of everyone in the Hou Mansion has been for many years. You brought your mother with you today. Because you know that the murderer and your mother have the most direct connection. You and your mother will definitely be able to attract the murderer. You said that your mother chased the murderer because you know the identity of the murderer— —"

Zheng Wenan's expression changed a little, "No...impossible...it is impossible for Yun Ni to know that..."

Bo Ruoyou’s voice fell cold, and her slender figure was shining in the sky, and she was a little awe-inspiring, “If she is the real Zheng Yunni, she certainly doesn’t know what happened back then, but if she was the one who was brought up by you. What about the kid hiding in the dark room?"

"She experienced it personally, and no one knew what happened back then better than her."

Everyone was shocked and unable to speak. At this moment, Zheng Yunni, who had been sitting down on the ground, suddenly got up and pulled off the hairpin from her bun and rushed towards Bo Ruoyou. Come--

Unexpectedly, no one would have imagined that Zheng Yunni dared to violently injure people in front of everyone. Bo Ruoyou was not far away, and everyone was shocked by Bo Ruoyou’s words, including Zheng, the nearest to Zheng Yunni. Wen An failed to stop Zheng Yunni.

Only Bo Ruoyou's complexion changed and he hurriedly backed away, but Zheng Yunni suddenly rushed towards him like a mad. Bo Ruoyou stumbled on a dead branch under his feet, and almost couldn't escape. Between the electric light and flint, a figure blocked her. In front of him

Huo Weilou squeezed Zheng Yunni's wrist, only heard a cracking sound, and then slammed her back. The next moment Zheng Yunni fell to the ground in pain, her body curled together, and cold sweat spread over her face.

The hairpin was removed, and the ink hair was dancing with the wind. Zheng Yunni slowed down. When she raised her head, her face was crazy. She grinned with painful teeth, but still said thinly to each other: "Shut up...I'm not... ...I am not the one who was hidden..."

Huo Weilou turned and looked at Bo Ruoyou, only to see Bo Ruoyou calm down and was not frightened. Huo Weilou asked, "How do you know that she was the one who was hidden back then?"

Bo Ruoyou was rescued by Huo Weilou again. He looked at him with a three-point gratitude, and said: "The real Miss Zheng has a strong spirit when she was four years old. When she was six years old, she developed hysteria, but she couldn't even speak. At first, the girl heard about her illness and felt that she was suffering, but later learned that the reason she was suffering from hysteria was that she was lost all night in the winter of that year. "

"Even though the Hou Mansion is big, the eldest lady was lost at the time, and An Qing Hou was doing his best to search for it. This was so, but he still got nothing. I don't know why, but now I know that there is a culvert underground in the Hou Mansion. Naturally, I figured it out. "

Huo Weilou frowned, "She entered the culvert? From that well? But the well is not shallow, so how did she come out?"

Bo Ruoyou said cautiously: "The girl was puzzled, but later a lotus pond was filled up. The girl guessed that there was an underdrain under the rock of the lotus pond. The eldest lady found out. She went into the culvert and met another lady who was hidden. The person who was hidden shut the real lady in and walked out by herself."

Bo Ruoyou looked at Zheng Yunni, "So when she just came out, she couldn't speak and recognize people. She seemed to be suffering from hysteria. She wanted to be raised underground and no one had taught her to speak. She was afraid of the light and liked to get into the cabinet. This is also because she has consciously lived in the darkness. She is used to the darkness and naturally fears the light."

Huo Weilou heard Bo Ruoyou’s words from time to time, and his eyes were dark and unclear. The two brothers Zheng Wenan and Zheng Wenrong could not believe it, but I don’t know if they remembered all the things back then, they were shocked for a while. In hesitation.

When Zheng Yunni listened to Bo Ruoyou's words, he looked like crying but not smiling, his eyes were weird and nervous, as if he was going to be completely crazy in the next moment, "I really can guess, but... what evidence do you have?"

Bo Ruoyou only looked at Huo Weilou, "Master Hou, when we went to the underground darkroom, we found a poem written very similar to that of the murderer. It was a seven-character poem from the previous dynasty, and the handwriting was also read by Master Hou. Not talking about how to be superior, but they are also pretty. They don't even teach a child who is hidden, how can they teach her to write poetry?"

Huo Wei said: "Unless the real eldest lady is replaced, because she is four years old and has a very talented talent."

Zheng Yunni suddenly sneered, "What kind of evidence is this? I am Zheng Yunni. I don't know what a dark room is. I will be married to your second highness next month. How dare you treat me like this?"

Father Fu was shocked for a while before he had the opportunity to speak, and at the moment he hummed and said, "Miss...Ah no, false eldest lady, your mansion is a crime of deceiving the emperor by just reporting a false birthday, let alone you are still a man. Fake, you still want to marry your Second Highness, but you are really dreaming of Spring and Autumn..."

Zheng Yunni's expression became even crazier when he heard this, but at this moment, He Cheng, who was standing facing the fire scene, exclaimed and pointed to the fire scene, "Master Hou, I have rescued people——"

Everyone turned around and looked around, and saw only two embroiderers who sneaked into the fire scene in the flames and smoke, each holding a person and rushing out of the forest. The embroiderer who walked in front came out first and hugged him in his arms. The old lady whose entire back was scorched, while the backward embroidered clothes envoy held a scar-faced woman with an ordinary jacket and skirt in her arms.

She was as thin as a wood, her face was unnaturally white, and the scar on her left face was purple and black. At first glance, she was almost exactly the same as the foolish woman, but when the night wind blew her hair and blocked her left face, everyone At a glance, it can be seen that she and Zheng Yunni are even eighth similar to each other——

Seeing this sister who killed the three people in a row was rescued, Zheng Yunni's already crazy face gave birth to a weird and annoying smile. She smiled happily, with a pair of eyes staring at the woman's face. Scar.

Bo Ruoyou sighed, "Have you been back to the dark room later? You burned the scar on her face?!"
